A quick idea for my mashup. I just had to immediately use the Dreadlord Jaina's art. :>
So the idea is that her HP and Battlecry benefit both classes - DH can use her as a followup after Sigil of Reckoning (preferably, since that was my intent :>), and Jaina got a push for expensive spells in Alterac Valley. HP benefits Mage more, albeit Demon Hunter can also use it for some quick chip damage and a 2/2, all for 1 Mana, not to mention Demon synergies.
Not sure what's the status on that one, but I've seen it brought up just a few days ago here. So still on their radar and being worked on, but must be causing some headaches. Unless the patch surprises us with a working fix and it just wasn't properly documented in the notes.
The choose your own cardback pool is pretty smart. Considering that there's probably two hundred of them now, with less than 10 favorites in total, its nice to know that I'll be seeing only those I like rather than the deluge of others I dont.
Golden card upgrades...probably more of an option for whales. Most of us minnows are grateful to simply have a copy at all. Im not going to slag team5 for reducing costs, but in this case Im not entirely certain its smart. Most players that go out on their way to get golden cards tend to be big spenders or otherwise already really invested in the game, so its kinda like giving tax breaks to rich people. How many players ultimately benefit from such a change at all, compared to the gains they'd make from getting these whales to buy packs for it?
Take a moment to see how many crazy things you can think of with this card. The most important thing though is, does the effect make sense?
I feel like the fact that it's a fairly small hero card, as well as not having 4 lines of text, will probably make it stand out among most entries in this comp.

Felfire Ragnaros is really cool aesthetically, though I do agree that it has a LOT of face damage potential and both classes have ways of being able to utilize it effectively.
Mecha-Mannoroth is cool, although I agree with what you said before about only killing one minion with its effect throughout the whole game, and continually resurrecting it.

So it looks like my comment about my card standing out for being small may not be true after all.
I really like this card though. It's simple, yet its effective and interesting. 5 stars from me.
I'd love to see the data on which card is most often upgraded to golden. Tell us in a month, Blizzard!
And I will absolutely be setting a selection of favorite cardbacks. I like the Random idea, but it always seemed to result in a very Christmas (excuse me, Winter Veil) cardback in a non-Christmas season.
No worries: I deleted Felfire Ragnaros and edited in a different card in its place lol.
I could see your card featured in some silly OTK involving the Linecracker 2000+ Armor combo, plus Silas Darkmoon and Soulbound Ashtongue haha. Why wait them out when you can inflict 2000+ damage to their face and just end things :D
I still think you should include Fel Rag in spoiler, at least. It wasn't a bad card, even if I prefer your new one.
As for the OTK, wouldn't something like Shield Slam still do the trick?
Well, Shield Slam is a Warrior card, while Earthen Scales (to get all that Armor) is a Druid card. You can do the combo in Warrior - and people have been doing it since Silas came out - but not for 2000+ damage.

@linkblade I feel like this has too much face potential. I don't know how to fix it, since restricting either the weapon or the HP to only affect minions feels kinda bad.

Simple prompt, but quite hard honestly. Here's my first take on it.
I'm assuming the Battlecry takes place after the armor gain, so at least he always gains +5 Attack. The Hero Power makes use of two keywords which both Warrior and Druid usually make use of.
Going a different direction; not happy with my Felfire Ragnaros. I'll keep it in the above spoiler, as per Wailor's suggestion.
A Hero card with multi-targeting! Both Warlock and Warrior have been known to sacrifice their minions in the pursuit of victory, whether directly via Dark Pact or as a consequence of something else like Brawl. They've both dabbled with Carnivorous Cube, as well. Rebuild wants you to kill off specific minions so you can try to revive something chunky, so a Big Demon Warlock deck or a Big Warrior might be a good idea.

I'm baffled that they'd release the heroic brawliseum when standard is in such an abysmal state. Makes no sense whatsoever.

As mostly 《They mostly come out at night... mostly, as Newt said》a mobile player I am pleased I will be able to easily share a deck code.
The inability to copy-pasta a deck code in the mobile app has been frustrating for far too long.

Competition Theme: Double Identity
We've a lot of classes in need of help at the minute, so it's time to put some heroes on double shifts!
MrRhapsody is looking for some cards which really bridge the gap between classes this week - it'll take a heroic effort to satisfy them!
As always, I can be reached through Discord or here on the site via PM if you have any issues to report.
